I have enjoyed several of Miranda Dickinson’s previous books so was excited to receive an advance copy of this latest one. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher.
This is due to be published in August and I recommend it as a holiday read. It’s set in Cornwall in St Ives, somewhere I have visited on holiday several times. It really portrays the summer vibe of the town. The story revolves around an old piano so it’s quite different in that respect, but it’s also about finding love and also about a search for someone from the past. There’s a very satisfying ending!

The book is set in Cornwall, and it is a place I have only been to a handful of times but with Miranda's descriptions of the place I now want to go back more than ever. Merryn owns a café and has a good community support system around her after things not going well in her life. But she wants more and when Zach turns up, he is not in the best place either, the thing he loves to do the most surfing may not be anymore because of an injury, can the pair help to heal one another. The two bond over a piano of all things. It was a good pick up book, an easy read, nothing too heavy. Of course there are real life situations but Miranda has written them in sensitively. All round a good read.
